    I know we can all agree on Andrea being far better in the comics than on the show, but what about all the other characters that are both in the comics and on the show? Do you like any characters on the show better than in the comics for any reason? For some reason I like Hershel on the show a lot better than in the comics, but that is just me.

    Hmm if i had to compare.

    1)I like Glenn better on the show than in the comics, he seems slightly more badass after what he did to walker when Mele tied him up to a chair to get killed. I also like Glenn and Maggies relationship better its more romantic, and shows a true bond of soul mate in the tv show. Whereas in the comic their relationship was primarily out of lust then transitioned into love coming closer to their arrival to Alexandra safe zone.

    2)I can't make a decision on Michonne as yet as they've yet to full draw out her character, but If i had to choose I'd pick comic Michonne as she isn't as one dimensional.

    3)I like Andrea from the comics a lot more than from the tv show. Comic andrea is more conflicted and real to me (Irony music here), isn't a bumbling idiot, and actually contribute and helps the group, and was always there at the most critical times. Rather than **** things up for people (See shooting daryl in the farm), or whine and complain as her tv show counterpart loves to do.

    4) I like comic rick a lot more than i like tv Rick. Comic rick showed a more gradual progression from being Mr. all American heroe to cold blooded survivor. He also wasn't as slow as tv Rick, and caught on quick the principle of surviving at all cost, going so far as to cut off a women's hand just to save himself and his son for example.

    I definitley like them both but I liked the evil side of The Governor, plus he's got a eye patch. You can't get much more badass then that xD

    Andrea is probably my favorite character in the comics next to Rick, but on the TV series she tends to aggravate me. I'm hoping she'll become more like her comic counterpart on the show, but as of right now it seems like Maggie is going more towards Andrea's comic role.

    The only ones I feel differently about in the show are Carol and Maggie. They irritate me in the comics. Especially Maggie.

    Show- Maggie, Carol, Lori, Hershel, Otis, Shane (b/c of Bernthal's acting, the love triangle went on a lil too long)
    Comic- Rick, Carl, Glenn (TV hes more badass, but i like Glenns kind of innocence in the comics), Michonne, Sophia, Dale, Andrea, The Governor
    no preference- Amy, Jim, Patricia, Martinez


    i do like the Glenn-Maggie relationship more on the TV show.
    juries still out on Tyreese.
    i dont consider TV Allen/Ben/Donna to be the same characters as the comics, just happen to have the same names.
    well see about Judith too...

    True, but in that case, Carol is a totally different person from the comics too

    I agree that Andrea is better in the Comic than the Show. Makes me actually not hate her.
